About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Pura Vida

ABOUT ME

Truly live life. I have traveled over half of 2006 and for four months of 2007. It's impossible to describe "All about you" in some text box. Just spend time with people to figure it out. Currently I am psyched about going to Costa Rica for five weeks and enjoying surfing, people, laughs/smiles, and every moment I can.

PHILOSOPHY

I live by my own ethics. Central to my ethical belief is that we are all equal. We all have our strengths and weaknesses, but if we live with love and compassion, we will truly understand how connected we all are on this planet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I just heard about couch surfing a couple weeks ago when woman I know said we might need to pick up a climber from Greece in the desert in Moab, Utah USA. We picked her up, took her out to the desert, and she became one fo our group. She wasn't an outsider. She was simply one of us, and I was happy to help her out and make that part of her trip better.
